Its also interesting to note the number of times some of the matches have been viewed! Shows how popular this has become!

Not to rain on the parade, but some of those viewing totals may be inflated by the participants obsessively checking their vote totals...

Or, what I do, go back often to look at the many great entries long after I have voted. Some, I even save on my PC for inspiration.

… or even simply looking for new questions and comments

Yes Im sure that people go and check the totals all the time, I do several times

but even taking that into consideration there are A LOT of people going back to do it, that was my point, is like watching a close horse race!

I have not done one of these before and had no idea how it all worked or how intense it could become! I may have to bow out as I dont think I can keep painting up! I "wargame" and as such have many other projects to work on (such as a 4'x8' layout of the Legations for the Boxer rebellion in 25-28mm, a new gladiator arena, and a 4'x8' "Final Days Berlin 1945" for 20mm) but who knows this LPL is very addicting!

and it took 6 years to collect all the buildings for "Berlin" the Reichstag, Reichschancellery, Brandenburg gate, and 20 or so other 20mm buildings

I guess it can wait a bit longer to get worked on! I think the biggest "problem" with the LPL is it makes me want to by and paint all those great minis I see put up!

I'm not sure it's really possible to "bow out", as in drop out of the race. Instead, your last entry will simply continue to be shown in each continuing round.

And anyway, if you have a lot of minis already painted, simply submit them in each new round. You won't earn the "new team" bonus points, but you might still do pretty darn well. In last season's LPL about half of my entries were newly painted, while the other half were things I'd painted some time ago.

Somehow I think forcing a competitor to remain in the league fails the "it's all for fun" test.

As for the pace, I'm pretty certain I will have to roll over at least one and maybe two rounds to make it to Round 10... 'cause I really want to paint my giant chicken.

Vonkluge · « **Reply #51 on:** May 14, 2009, 04:44:07 PM »

I understand, the you last entry stands and it should. You need the compeitor count even to make the matches line up. By "Bow out" I just ment fewer or no new entry's

And the field is starting to spread out...

Still dropping, ah well, at least I entered a new team in every round but the first

Eep, going down Let's see, if I drop 12 places each round I should end up... 117th?

Ah, improvement - this time I only dropped ten positions...

Pil - same here!

Happening to me too mate,

each time I enter a team I think is better than the last (except rnd 3) I thnk that should make a show of it I meet someone who has done the same

Still its great fun and is getting me painting and I think improving, that can only be a good thing

chin up

God dropped 11 places from third equal to 14th.

Well at least I am not 13th unlucky for some

I think I am improving as well but the shame is "So is everyone else"

Ray Rivers · « **Reply #57 on:** May 18, 2009, 12:26:44 PM »

Yep,

Folks are definately upping their game.

Some marvelous entries and a weekly store of "eye candy" of every sort!

Braxandur · « **Reply #58 on:** May 18, 2009, 12:37:57 PM »

Woohoo, first win

And my bugs have a 2nd chance this round. If only the opposition wasn't soo good looking (eruh.. or maybe that should be evil looking).

But now I'm also a bit fed up painting Bugs. The two rounds of them totaled 33 models , so I'll take a (well deserved) rest and nicely do "only" five models the next two or three rounds before going back into full scale production.

I'm enjoying this quite a lot and its helping me plough through a good chunk of my grey army. Though I'm stalling at the moment with the Mounted unit for next round. I may change and paint a different unit. I seem to have painters block with the mounted unit, its half done and its been like that for a week now.
